This is definitely very rare and great to see her in her early days!! Thank you so much for posting!! Do you by chance have anything else of Bette or of Tina Turner and/or Cher???
I love Bette Midler and wouldn't change a thing...but yes at that time she did smoke...not sure how frequently or how often but I've seen early pictures...that being said she also did her fair share of drugs during the 70's decade...
Intelligent, witty and assertive - love Bette Midler - great interview
i love that her talent, her charm and her humour is allowed to shine in this interview.
What a fantastic interview!.. outspoken and true to herself, plus I just love her take on Jagger in ‘73!!
Casually smoking in the middle of an interview ... gotta love the 70s 😂
That's how an interviewer should treat artists. Discussing their work not personal lives & prompting with interesting questions only when needed.
Absolutely
Well yea, that’s how all the music programs did it.
Beautiful then, beautiful now. Legend!
Everyone seems so softly spoken in these old interviews, even Bette Middler
Midler” but I wish interviews were still like this it is so calming
WONDERFUl! Had no idea she really wanted to STAY on B'way!
She has always been beautiful, love to hear her talk, love her songs, what talent she has, 😊

Thank you for sharing this - for those that know in her heyday who The Divine Miss M is: what a real treat!
Never saw this, thank you for posting it👍🏼
Love this. Bettes a legend
Oh how lovely to see! 😍 Thank you for posting and sharing - a real treat x
That was great...thank you for sharing!!
Bette is a classy nice lady ! She is one of the best female singers around !
Love her bluntness; always speaking her mind. Rare to see her so serious as her younger self. She’s usually so wacky and silly in her early years.
What an incredible legend and professional to boot. Hard to find.
Her little smile after saying “m” SO CUTEEEEe
fabulous!
Woah ole Whispering Bob of OGWT with the Divine Miss M...this is classic stuff...
A lady she is ❤️
British tv show The Old Grey Whistle TEST. Classic 70's show.
Love you bathhouse Betty. Divine miss m ❤
incredible!
What a cutie.
She’s the cutest!
Wow!!!!! This is pop culture history. What a treasure. How'd you find it? Thank you
Bette looks really beautiful here.

No but always on the look-out, trawling through VHS tapes etc
She was so beautiful. Still is.
Damn!! What a smart lady! She's a young girl here, and still comes across as a the same savvy, sexy and smart dame she is now.
Wow
The interviewer smoking right there? Oh those were different times.
She almost made Bob Harris animated, but not quite, lol.
Man Amy Winehouse looked so much like Bette
Before AIDS!
Her voice sounds to me as if she was a smoker at this time
Nope. It's a professional singer's thing to save the voice.

Spent her early career trashing Karen Carpenter.
The divine miss m. was off her rocker .
❤ Karen Carpenter forever❤
Not rockin’ that eyebrow-less look..
And who’s richer and who’s making more movies 😂?
She looks great as always!
The eyebrows are there, just finely tweezed.
Like Jean Harlow's, God love her. The early seventies, embracing the thirties brow.
